what's wrong with my dreamcast?

[russellian]

My dreamcast keeps making these loud noises for ALL games when they load, including dummied games. Every time I play a game (any game), it restarts 10 minutes into playing it.... SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!

The restart may be overheat related. Does the sound it's making sound sort of like a small fan rubbing on something at high speed or a whine like a fan with bad bearings? If so, perhaps your fan isn't working properly and your box is overheating. You can search the web for replacement parts, but you may have luck with this link: http://www3.goldenshop.com.hk/AI-trad/d-main.htm
